Thank you everyone for your replies, especially you John. The family I am concerned with was well off for those times and thought perhaps I had missed something when I joined this list that had been pointed out prior to that joining. I know where some are buried in KC and was just curious as to why there "seems" to have been no obituary. Thanks again to everyone, Marijean

I didn't have her obit published in MO. Her brother could have but I wasn't aware of any obit for her in MO. She died July 29, 1993. I thought that if anyone tried to find out about her and what she did in her lifetime, they would not be able to because her adult life was in OH. It made me widen my thoughts and ideas in trying to trace my other ancestors. ev
